[SAC] to www or not to www...

Ignoring, of course, the URL in angle-brackets <> that got inserted when my mail client's stupid HTML output got converted to plain text for the list.
 
At least the list is now stripping my msmail attachments.

Hi all,

I think that we should make requests to osgeo.org on port 80 redirect to www.osgeo.org <http://www.osgeo.org>  to allow a more consistent image and to avoid offending the SEO gods...

If .htaccess files are allowed and mod_rewrite enabled, dumping something like this into an .htaccess file in www.osgeo.org 's <http://www.osgeo.org 's>  document root should work:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}   !www\.osgeo\.org    [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}   !^$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$         http://www.osgeo.org/$1 <http://www.osgeo.org/$1>  [R=PERMANENT]

Jason
